A/N: Hi, Hi people!

I know I've been away for a long time at least in this fandom, and I offer my complete apologies. My muse was away for the longest time and couldn't find him. I was screwed on my laptop once again the result of an annoying sibling who refuses to take responsibility for it. It took me a while to get this out with the help of my friend FalconWolf3 who stayed up many nights helping me out with this, much thanks goes out to her!  

Hope you guys enjoy this chapter and remember please leave a review.

Eddie laid back on the already made bed after a warm shower and a lame attempt to eat he had been given the spare room. It felt too weird sleeping in here, knowing that this was... would be his room... when he would be born... he shook his head of these thoughts they were too complicated at the moment to process. Eddie shifted his body on the bed trying to find a comfortable spot. From the left side of the mattress he shimmied down a bit and moved slightly to the right. Shifting once more to the left again he brought the blanket up to his chin and settled deep into the blankets, sighing deeply. This had been a habit of his since he was a baby and had never been able to break out of it.

Because of lack of light in the room the dark shades that had adorned his pale face before had been taken off and were now laying safely on the nightstand. His eyes were still swirling the Metallic Silver film, for some reason he was having a hell of a time trying to will them back to a normal state. Bringing his left arm up he let it fall across his face, his mind drifting a bit back to the conversation he had had with the members of Mutant X. His would be family. After the garage incident they had all relocated to the seating area above the medical lab, he had explained to them that he had been from the future, twenty-eight years to be exact. All he was able to tell them was that he had been sent to prevent an alteration in history. In truth he had no idea why he had been sent here, not the full reason. So he had gone with the half-truth, something that had always worked in the past... future... whatever.

Brennan Mulwray. The idiot elemental had gotten on his last nerves with his questions of motives; it didn't surprise him that he wasn't trusted. But it still hurt all the same, so much in fact that at one point he had accidentally phased the protruding glass window above the lab along with the floor beneath him. He hadn't even exhaled or anything like that, which shocked Jesse, it had been a mistake, Shalimar had managed to grab him back and away before he could fall through, it was then that the feral had suggested they take a nights break. Emma had been kind enough to show him to where he would be

Spending his nights. It kind of weirded him out being in this room, whether the Psionic had purposely chosen this room or not he wondered how long he would be able to keep this up with them. Not telling them who he really is, it was a split second decision made to keep history from changing too much. Now all he had to do was wait until Lexie woke up and pray to whatever god was watching over them that she didn't freak out.

It couldn't have been no more than ten minutes later when he heard it, the faint thump fallowed by a short yell. Grabbing the shades off the nightstand he threw back the covers and ran to the door, opening it up he heard the sound of air cracking; it was a sound that made him somewhat uneasy and comfortable at the same time. Another thump heavier than the first one was heard, Eddie ran down the hall from the rooms and to his right towards the med-lab to find the exam chair empty and glass all over the floor. "Oh shit…" he saw a pair of legs stick out from under the metal table, walking over to the body he found an unconscious Adam. "Oh no." he reached over checking the man's pulse sighing in relief as he found a strong pulse. Adam would be out for a while he'd wake up with one hell of a headache. He turned and ran out of the lab and in the direction of the dojo when the yelling started, he came to a sliding stop near the stairs to the walkway. What he found nearly gave him a coronary. There crouched on the first few steps of the dojo in her pajama's was Shalimar, in front of the feral on the floor was Lexie, in a fighting stance no less. A hand came up on his shoulders Eddie grabbed at the hand whirling around ready to knock the person out on instinct but stopped when he saw it was Emma, behind her a sleepy Jesse came in. "What going on?" Eddie turned back to the two in front of him caught between wanting to help Lexie and Shalimar.

"This is bad." Jesse said as he looked towards his best friend and now fully alert younger elemental. It was then that he saw the younger woman's fingers they seem to be dripping with electrical discharge he vaguely remembered Brennan telling him that when he use to get sick he would loose control of his powers. Before he could say anything Lexie had shot out her right arm, Shalimar had leapt through the air and landed behind the elemental, the young woman swung around and knocked the now aggressive feral back with hard elbow to the ribs. Shalimar got back up and swung hard at Lexie causing her to stumble forward. Lashing out with a fist the feral was surprised that the younger one could block so fast or hit so strong while injured. Telsa coils spilled from the elementals' fingertips and danced across the floor and dispersed. Lexie punched out into the air just barely missing Shalimar who tried a drop kick but Lexie had back flipped out of the way.

"Shalimar don't!" Eddie cried out running to interfere but the flash of blue and white lights had him dropping to the floor covering his sensitive eyes. "Lexie stop!" another crack through the air as Lexie kept shooting out the electrical charges almost dead on, but the feral was faster at jumping out of the way. Shalimar leapt through the air scampering up the wall, just at the telsa coils shot to the spot where she had been standing. Lexie turned in the direction of the com-link system getting ready to let out another charge when she was grabbed from the side. With her arms pinned down she threw her head back knocking the unfortunate person in the jaw, her left leg curled around the strong legs and yanked hard causing the body to let go fall backwards slamming into the ground. She whirled around planting a bare foot on his chest pressing down hard, she brought her palms together she pulled them apart creating a red and silver telsa ball.

"Alexianna!" Eddie cried out running to the two mutants, he shoved the shades back on shielding his eyes. Fear and panic shot through both Eddie and Brennan as they recognized what the girl was about to throw. "You don't want to do this." Brennan's words seem to have a better effect on her than Eddie's protest because she stopped moving altogether, as if someone had pressed a pause button on the TV. The electro magnetic ball was the only thing moving, pulsing between her palms. Brennan's eyes were dead set on the young woman. "I'm not here to hurt you, none of us are… Put it away Lexie…"

At these words it was as if all time stood still, the only sounds if you could believe was that of a heart beating and the young woman's heavy breathing. No one moved waiting for something to break this trance… it seemed like forever until the silence was broken by a cry of rage. She threw the EM ball with such force… right into the waters below the dojo. Lexie stumbled away from the elemental on the floor shaking, standing by the steps her fingers still dripping with the blue and white electrical charges.  "Come on get up." Eddie said shaking off the well-known shock; he held a hand out to help Brennan up off the floor just barely missed being singed by another electrical charge.

"Are you alright?" Emma asked forcing Brennan to sit on the steps on the walkway, checking over him for any serious injury. 

The younger Molecular was now standing a few feet away from a dazed Lexie, who's breathing was ragged. The inner lens from his shades were running their own bio-scans, and assessing damage to the area. What he read was nothing short of surprise. 'Oh, no, no, no, no, this isn't happening.'  His hands wavered a bit as he tired to put together a straight train of thought. Reaching out to hold her still he received a wild hit, he immediately phased out, she kept coming with wild hits from the side bright electrical charges dripping now around her.

Shalimar came up behind Brennan, Jesse and Emma. Voicing the realization that had hit her when she had climbed up the wall and observed the younger woman's fighting style. "She's fighting blind." Shalimar stepped towards two younger mutants wanting to help Eddie as he had tried to help her. "Shal don't. Emma grabbed the feral by her arm holding her back. "Let me." She said stepping away from the group by the stairs, standing a safe distance from them as she focused on the young woman trying to get a hold on some sort of thought. There was nothing but chaos and the fear of something familiar. Emma pushed further in trying to find a way in and to calm the young woman down.

*She found herself in a poorly lit room. The walls were a blur almost as if they had been painted there. The floor was just as dark with silver, blue, red, gold, and pink swirls that made her kind of nauseated.  

'Go away!' A small child like voice yelled out from the darkness.

'I can't do that…' Emma replied softly trying her best to locate the voice.

'I said go away!'

'I can't sweetie, I'm here to help you...'

'Go away you're only making it worse.'

'How am I making it worse?'

'You're not real.' the child retorted.

Emma looked around the dark walls got more blurred with each yell. 'I'm as real as you are… Lexie.'

'No you're not. You're not real go away!' This times the walls and the floor below her shook so hard causing Emma to fall down on her butt. 'Lexie, you need to stop what you're doing before you hurt someone.'

'How can I hurt what's not real?' The voice now sounds a bit older, maybe nine or ten years. 'Eddie is real isn't he?' Emma threw out hoping the kid would show herself. The walls stopped shaking but were still blurred. 'Lexie if you don't stop you'll hurt Eddie really bad.'

'Eddie…'

"Put it away, Lexie."

Emma turned at the sound of Brennan's voice, as it echoed across the walls, with each echo of his voice the walls would become less and less blurred. Stronger looking. Much more sharper in context, the darkness lightened up at bit.

'You're not real… You can't be.' Just as sudden the walls reverted back to there blur state. 'Why can't I be real?' she asked as a young dark haired girl came into view. The girl knelt down by Emma resting a hand on her knee. Cold Metallic Silver eyes stared right into her blue ones. 'You're not real.' Came the coldest voice Emma had ever heard from a child. With that came the brightest blue and silver lights. 'GET OUT!'*

Emma had been shoved with such force that she was knocked backwards into the body behind her. Both she and Jesse went flying back into the center of the stonewall but instead of colliding with it they went right through, into the bed room on the other side, landing on the safety of the bed. "What the hell was that?" Jesse asked looking around.

Back on the other side of the wall in the hall, Shalimar and Brennan looked back in the direction of the two younger mutants to find Eddie had one hand on the wall, beneath the protruding computer terminal where Jesse and Emma had just gone through. Moving his hand off the wall Eddie walked toward Lexie, placing his arms around her.

Shalimar applied the bandage to Adam's arm helping him into the sling. "I still don't understand what happened. One minute I was fine and checking over her vitals the next I feel a tremendous stinging sensation in my back, then complete darkness."

"That would be the feeling of a voltage shocking you Adam." Emma said from the monitors on the other side of the lab, she wasn't really paying much attention to the two in the room with her. For her mind was somewhere else. "Be glad it was just minor."

"Yeah," Shalimar said.

"The others?"

"Eddie managed to maneuver Lexie onto the dojo, he's treating her wounds. Brennan and Jesse are working on bringing back the lights." At Adam's confused expression she continued. "She managed to blow them out just before we woke up."

"Judging by the damage she's done I'd say she have quite an ability." Adam said looking as if he had found a new toy. "I don't think she had control, at the least very little." Shalimar said.

"I think it's best if we keep her under observation for a few days. Just until she can get this under control."

"You sure you wanna do that?" Shalimar asked. "Adam, I know you're into helping people and all but sometimes you can get a little…"

"Intense." Emma said sounding distracted while keeping into the conversation.

"Yeah… but she's a scared kid, I mean I could feel it when I was fighting her. She doesn't know what's going on let alone where she is. The last thing she needs is someone looking over her shoulder the entire time." 

Adam smiled at Shalimar's concern and sudden need to protect the younger woman.
